If it helps, below is the error report I get from Word when it crashes: Since I only started having this problem within the last month and the problem seems to be limited to this one document.and the two other copies I have since had to make of it.I am wondering if it is just the shere number of individual references included so I am curious if the others encountering this problem have a similarly high number of references in their documents. Each time, only Word crashes - Endnote remains open and functional though closing out of it and restarting both programs does not help, only transfering the text to a new document.Īs the hosts of this forum have suggested I attempted to convert my reference to "unformatted" but doing so caused Word to crash immediately as others have apparently also encountered. I the I did as the others have indicated and copied the text from the offending file and pasted it into a new document which fixes the problem for a time, however, upon going back to those new documents recently I am now encountering the same problem forcing me to repeat the process. It will start going through the process of updating the references and links but when it gets to "updating in text citations" in the pop-up Word will crash.

However, when I brought them back up I began encountering the issue with Word crashing w hen I attempt to insert or update references in my document's bibliography. At one point, the program froze so I attempted to restart both programs as before. Once I did so I could continue for a while but would eventually have to restart both programs again. When my reference list exceeded 100 references occationally the process would hang and I would have to restart both Word and Endnote to proceed. As I was writing and inserting refernces, I gradually noticed that it took longer and longer to update the bibliography the more references I included. The document I am working on currently has over 200 cited references. I am working with Microsoft Word 2011 on a MacBook Pro and am having the exact same issue.

I see that this thread is about a year old so I am curious if anyone has found a solution.
